We stayed at the Maq April 2024. Location is in the heart of Tofino, easily walkable to shops, restaurants & tour services. Parking was provided behind the hotel at no charge. Our rooms were clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The “mini fridge” was a cooler and ice was provided free of charge at the Maq liquor store. Perfectly suited our needs. Since we stayed off season, the hotel dining room was open only one night during our stay, food was really good with affordable pricing. There is a beautiful patio off the restaurant and lobby. We happened to hit “wine Wednesday” for 1/2 price bottles of wine, so that was an added bonus! The coffee shop in the lobby offers snacks and good coffee. We loved the eclectic feel of the hotel, the decor and that the Maq is dog friendly as is the town. Next time we visit, we will be bringing ours. Any staff we interacted with at the hotel were friendly and knowledgeable. Our future visits to Tofino will ensure a stay at the Maq, and there will be a next visit. Tofino is a fun little town, there is something for everyone and such a natural wonder that we and Canada are so fortunate to have.

The outside of the hotel is nothing like the inside. What they did with this over 70 year old hotel is amazing!!! Only thing is there is no elevator but staff are happy to help with carrying luggage to the 2nd floor. Would definitely say at the Maq again.
